Samsung brings Gear S3 and Blue Coral Galaxy S7 to Canada

Samsung is bringing more of its highly-awaited mobile products to Canada this week with the Gear S3 classic and frontier, and the Blue Coral Galaxy S7.

The former, the Gear S3 series, is a successor to the popular Gear S2, featuring bigger displays, larger batteries and GPS connectivity for more accurate tracking. While Canadians won't have access to the LTE-enabled version of the Gear S3, the improvements in battery life alone should be worth the price of admission. Both models, the streamlined classic and more rugged frontier, retail for $469 CDN; the smaller, aging Gear S2s are still on sale for between $319 and $369.

The Blue Coral Galaxy S7 is also available in Canada, both through Samsung's Experience stores and online, and via pre-order from Rogers. It's the same phone, just in a new color, but it proved extremely popular with the Note 7, so Samsung should find considerable success with it here.
